[PATCH v4 2/4] objtool/powerpc: Add support for decoding all types of uncond branches

[Christophe Leroy]

Add support for 'bla' instruction.

This is done by 'flagging' the address as an absolute address so that
arch_jump_destination() can calculate it as expected. Because code is
_always_ 4 bytes aligned, use bit 30 as flag.

Also add support for 'b' and 'ba' instructions. Objtool call them jumps.
